Moving to Jackson Ward: What to Know

Jackson Ward sits on the northern edge of downtown Richmond, less than a mile from the Virginia State Capitol. Founded by free Black Americans after the Civil War, it grew into one of the most influential Black business communities in the country, earning the nickname the Black Wall Street of America. The neighborhood was home to Maggie L. Walker, the first woman to charter and lead an American bank, and it was designated a National Historic Landmark District in 1978.

History and Character

Jackson Ward’s Victorian architecture and cast-iron ironwork reflect its late 19th and early 20th century roots. Landmarks like the Maggie L. Walker National Historic Site and the Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia anchor the neighborhood’s legacy, and the annual Second Street Festival in October celebrates that history each year.

Getting Around

Jackson Ward’s location just north of downtown puts it within walking distance of the Capitol, VCU’s downtown campus, and the Arts District, which makes it a popular choice for people who want a short commute without giving up historic character.

Keyshon, Kaylen, and Deyon were fantastic! We handed them a wildly unorganized move—my boyfriend apparently believes labeling boxes takes away the element of surprise—and they handled it with so much patience and professionalism. We had delicate art, lots of books, and heavy items, and they were careful with our belongings while still working efficiently. Even with all the chaos on our end, they were friendly, reassuring, and so easy to work with. What I appreciated most was how welcome they made us feel in Richmond. Moving to a new city is a lot, and having three genuinely kind people help us settle in made a real difference. I’d absolutely recommend Cavalier Moving, and especially Keyshon, Kaylen, and Deyon. Thank you all!
